I noticed something about christmas... bear with me

Indeed, its like having Christmas with no presants, "Whose stupid idea was it to give presants for christmas" its like that, Kids love it, they have fun decorating the tree and putting presants under it..

Yeh. I like the candycanes..

Some Christians are even against the use of Christmas trees because they claim it represents "pagan ideas". Heh.

Many royal families would use it and the Christmas tree tradition spread from high-class people to all sorts of socioeconomic classes. Interesting, no?

Well 1000s of "renewals of life" are burned down every year:rolleyes:

I guess that makes sense, dont get offended by me saying, its just that if you didnt grow up with this tradition, but then you just learned of it, it sounds crazy. "We are going to put a tree in our living room?!"

To hell with them xD

We cant really change this tradition. Since nearly every family in the world puts one up
